Participating lieutenant governor candidates include State Representative Tami Gouveia, and Salem Mayor Kim Driscoll and Western Massachusetts state Senators Eric Lesser and Adam Hinds.
Hinds, of the Berkshire Hampshire, Franklin, and Hampden District, explained the appeal of the position when he announced his bid last fall:
“It means you can be the center of gravity in the administration for rethinking our systems, rethinking our institutions, bringing people together to do that throughout government.”
The 6 p.m. event at Bounti-Fare Restaurant also features State Auditor candidate State Senator Diana DiZoglio. It’s presented by the North Adams Democratic City Committee.
